Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015149360A1] It provides a portable apparatus for controlling a robot and a method therefor. The portable apparatus includes: an orientation sensor, being adapted for measuring orientation of said portable apparatus; an HMI device, being adapted for detecting two-dimensional manual motion relative to said HMI device; and a processing unit, being adapted for receiving a first signal representing said measured orientation of said portable apparatus and a second signal representing said detected two-dimensional manual motion relative to said HMI device and controlling a part of said robot to move in a direction in consideration of said measured orientation of said portable apparatus and said detected two-dimensional manual motion relative to said HMI device. By having the portable apparatus and the method therefor as explained herein, the two-dimensional manual movement on touch panel is integrated with orientation of the portable apparatus and an integration of these is mapped by the robot, which makes it possible to define a path in three dimensional space for jogging/teaching robot's movements in three dimension. This renders more intuitive than realization of linear robot movement by the portable orientation.
